RICHARD MCMURRY

Received the following note from James Reynolds of Class 52, and Charles obit is on Obits under "Obit Stories" for Class '52 which you may click and see it. Also, putting the story written by Bailey of Arkansas Democrat on the LRHS page that James e-mailed the next day.
His e-mail note said in part:
"As a member of the Class of 1952 I attended the recent 50th anniversary of our class. On Saturday, April 27th, at our dinner celebration, as the guests were arriving, one of our classmates had a massive heart attack and died."
While searching out the correct date I came across an article by Jim Bailey of the Sports Section of the Arkansas Democrat/Gazette in the Tuesday paper dated May 30, 2002 as follows: "Charles M. "Charlie" Adcock, who died Saturday at 66, was one of the unsung pillars of the Arkansas sports scene for about five decades --former high school coach, former ARKANSAS DEMOCRAT sportswriter, former commissioner of the Arkansas Intercollegiate Conference and encyclopedic source on the Little Rock High School Tigers of Wilson Matthews' coaching time. "He treasured all his associations," said Dale Adcock, his wife of 47 years. "He very rarely met anyone he didn't like." He was stricken while attending the 50th reunion of his high school class. He'd been among the main organizers of annual reunions for "Wilson's Tigers," the football players who crushed the state for Matthews from 1947-1957, and a regular at their smaller weekly sessions, convened in Little Rock coffee shops. An Arkansas Tech graduate, Adcock served as AIC Commissioner from 1962-1974, leaving that job for the insurance business. His ties remained strong in this area also. After the AIC disbanded in 1995, an annual golfing reunion for former member schools' administrators and coaches was established at Arkadelphia. The one coming up Thursday will be the first he missed. Adcock occasionally claimed, in jest, that he was to some extent responsible for Brooks Robinson's Hall of Fame baseball career. "I was in my last year with the [American Legion] Little Rock Doughboys, and I played second base," he said. "Brooks was coming up, about 14, and second base was supposed to be his position. There was no way Brooks wasn't going to be in the lineup. So they did me a favor and moved Brooks to third." Third base proved to be exactly where Brooks Robinson belonged." [End of article.]
